We went real high tech in the way that we picked the winner of the contest. I’m sure there’s some fancy schmancy computer generated thing we could have done, but we decided to write all of the names down on strips of paper and let the kids draw the winner out of a bowl. And since we have two kids, we decided that it was only fair to draw two winners! And here’s the highly entertaining video of our kids drawing the names…<\/p>\n
Okay, having some difficulty getting the video to post. Will work on that! Anyway, the winners are…Cheri Ramsey (name drawn by Mak) and Ryanne Cribb (name drawn by CB)! Congratulations, Ladies! Can’t wait to discuss your ideas for your family portraits!<\/p>\n
Oh, and the portrait that was most popular for above our mantle???? My FAVORITE, #2!!! I was very glad that this is the one that you all chose. Collin’s favorite was #1, which I like a lot as well. Thanks, y’all, for participating in the contest. We had a lot of fun with it and really loved reading all of your responses!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
